About this product

Product Information

David Williams shows that images associated with saints are not simply illustrations of written accounts, nor are the gestures, prayers, and liturgical practices of devotees of saints' cults simply derivative of them. Rather, images and enactments expand and complete the text, adding visual and dramatic dimensions. Williams demonstrates his ideas through discussion and case studies of three saints: the biblical figure of Saint Anne, mother of the Virgin; the medieval English martyr Saint Thomas Becket; and Saint Maximillian Mary Kolbe, who gave his life to save that of another in the Auschwitz concentration camp. A remarkable study of text, image, and enactment, Saints Alive presents a complete study of the depiction of saints that will change the way they are understood.

Buyer does not seem to have read the listing. The book was not New--we only sell used and antique books. The description contained a list of the book's defects. Buyer was fully refunded. The rest of our feedback (all positive for the last 12 years) shows our consistency, which is why we are considered a Top Rated Seller.
